About this film

When Chinese billionaire purchases a closed General Motors factory in post-industrial Dayton Ohio and opens a Fuyao factory, hopes run high as thousands of hard-working locals are once again back on the job. However, hope wanes as cultural tensions rise in this duly buzz-worthy Sundance selection by legendary directors Julia Reichert and Steven Bognar.
